What’s on your for-sure, longterm jewelry wishlist?

I feel like the pieces I mentioned are all very iconic brand pieces, but it was probably a bit presumptuous of me to think that everyone would just “know” what pieces I was referring to. Since someone asked for photos, I collected some pics.

Most likely going to buy over the next several years:

Perlee clover bracelet

Viper bracelet

Victoria bracelet

Double love ring

Lotus ring

Unknown, because super expensive or don’t love consistently:

Bird on a rock brooch View attachment 5020713
Folie des pres bracelet View attachment 5020714
Pave ceramic love bracelet

Sixteen stone ring

Diamond juste un clou bracelet

Okay, I bought the “maybe” sixteen stone ring. Forgot to update my list. It’s because the price of the bird on a rock brooch increased from $35,000 to $75,000, and I felt pressure because Tiffany is really pushing to increase the price of Schlumberger pieces.

Anyways, now that I’ve got that out of the way, I think the next piece I want is the serpenti bracelet. Maybe this year. Or else next year. I was originally thinking I’d go for the perlee clover bracelet as my next big purchase, but realized that the serpenti is more bling for the same price and lower maintenance, since it’s all diamond. Also, it’s a little less seen on social media.

One more thing I forgot about. I actually paid for the double love ring in December of 2021. But Cartier cancelled my order a few weeks later, because they (sadly) no longer make the piece anymore. So that also contributed to why I decided on getting the sixteen stone ring next. I need to figure out what to do about a rose gold thumb ring now, because the double love is what I originally wanted… Well, I guess I’ll figure it out later.

My list changes from year to year...

I have a collection I love, and now I'm concentrating on wearable pieces, which for me pretty much mean at home--but I am also drawn to statement pieces, but will likely have nowhere to wear them.

Right now, this is what I am coveting:

1) A pair of large pearl drop earrings. I don't have pierced ears, so the Kiki McDonough detachable pearl drops are perfect

2) This Cartier bracelet:


3) A 4 carat emerald cut diamond ring in a simple gold setting. I'm ok with a lab authentic diamond (not synthetic).
 
Oh I love those threads- they are like a little diary for me :)

In my wishlist are

diamond studs, actually I won't find any on a reasonable price, mostly bc I'd like them to be around 1.00 ct
still Hermès chaine d'ancre bracelet not too expensive, yet I couldn't pull the trigger
a tennis bracelet, those aren't that as common over here, so it's hard to find one
pretty earrings with colored stones
and a bracelet comparable to the one my grandmother had, with turmalins in yg. this will be the one that will be the hardest to find:(
and a cocktail ring and if I say cocktail ring I mean: BIG rock. BIG BIG rock.

It makes more sense to order both tennis bracelet and studs from a jeweler. There is usually quite a big markup for finished jewelry at the stores.

Got the serpenti bracelet today! The diamonds are larger than I expected, so I’m very happy.
